The last several years have tested us deeply, bringing mental health to the forefront. While the prevalence of mental illness remains historically high, there is now a stronger, more open culture around seeking the care all deserve.
As the leading (and largest) free-standing psychiatric hospital in Georgia, Peachford is here to help. We are looking for Registered Nurses who have experience or an interest in Mental Health Nursing to help us on our mission to meet the needs of our community.
Peachford has been a leader in behavioral health and addictive disease treatment since 1973. Our 246 bed hospital treats nearly 10,000 children, adults and seniors every year who come seeking the best psychiatric care available and we are looking for a master's prepared therapist that can provide services both in our Child and Adolescent Program - Next Time and in our Adult Services Program. We are looking for candidates who are dedicated and committed to providing the highest level of compassionate care. Our hospital is located on a 38 acre wooded campus in the Dunwoody neighborhood of North Atlanta and over 500 incredibly talented employees call us home.
We are searching for RNs to work weekend shifts for a premium pay base rate. We have a variety of patient populations to choose from and sign on bonuses are offered for full time positions. Charge Nurse roles, which include a differential, are also available. Friday/Saturday/Sunday or Saturday/Sunday/Monday - 12 hour shifts. Other shifts/positions are available.
